The Pirelli Scorpion Trail II tyres were specifically designed to meet the versatility of the modern adventure touring motorcycle. They feature an aggressive tread pattern supported by strong technological innovations, giving good stability even at high speed, excellent traction on dirt as well as superior handling, comfort and grip in all riding conditions.

Tread Pattern:

The tread pattern of Pirelli Scorpion Trail II tyres have an aggressive look typical of an off-road tyre, but that combines the greatest features of an enduro tyre with those of a sport touring tyre. The side grooves have been designed to ensure optimal drainage of water, while the layout and shape of the central grooves not only contribute to the drainage of water but also ensure better traction, greater stability and normal wear.

Compounds:

The entire Pirelli Scorpion Trail II tyre line features a dual compound construction. Compared to its predecessor, this tyre has a wider central section which contains a compound developed for high mileage without compromising cornering performance. The side compound was designed to optimize the balance between performance on dry and wet roads.

Profile:

Thanks to a shorter, wider, contact patch area, the profile helps to reduce and level the wear of the tyre while maintaining consistent performance throughout its life.

Structure:

The structure that lies beneath the Pirelli Scorpion Trail 2 tyres ensures high performance, even at full load or with heavier motorcycles, making it comfortable for long trips and winding roads.

Features:

• Increased mileage, improved wet grip with an incredible performance consistency throughout its entire life cycle
• Innovative tread pattern combines the typical off-road style of the Pirelli Scorpion™ range with the experience directly derived from the Angel GT (Pirelli's top sport touring product)
• Peak performance of enduro and sport touring blended into one product
• Larger center compound stripe to guarantee enhanced cornering performance
• Central compound developed for higher mileage and improved behavior in wet conditions
• Side compound for optimized balance between dry and wet performance
• High performance for heavy, fully-loaded bikes
• Incredible versatility ensures peak performance on long, straight journeys or twisty roads with the most adverse weather conditions

• First sizes already available, with the full range set for launch throughout the year.

The SCORPION™ Trail III is engineered for modern adventure and crossover motorcycles, offering versatility across various riding contexts. It represents Pirelli's latest advancements in tire technology and materials, developed by their Research and Development Department.

On asphalt, the SCORPION™ Trail III delivers a highly sporty experience, thanks to its exceptional grip, optimal handling, and stability even under full load. It provides wet performance similar to Sport-Touring tyres, enhancing rider confidence in challenging conditions. When transitioning to dirt roads, the tyre's tread pattern, featuring a mix of central and transverse grooves, ensures superior control and traction.

The tyre?s tread design is an evolution of its predecessor, the SCORPION™ Trail II, aimed at enhancing stability and riding precision. Inspired by the DIABLO sport range, the tread pattern includes grooves for wet drainage and lateral stability on softer terrain, as well as robust central and shoulder grooves for traction and guidance on dirt roads. These improvements increase the rubber contact with the road, enhancing overall performance.

The SCORPION™ Trail III features new compounds, with 100% silica-based radial sizes for both front and rear. The rear dual-compound radials use a soft compound on the shoulders and plasticising resins for cornering grip, while the harder central tread band offers stability, wear resistance, and mileage.

The tyre's structures, derived from supersport experience, enhance ride and grip, especially in radial sizes with a 0-degree steel belt construction for stability at high speeds. The rigid structures of the rear tyres provide sporty handling and stability under all load conditions.

Derived from Sport Touring tyres, the tire profiles offer stability at high speeds, high mileage, and a progressive, sporty feel. The SCORPION™ Trail III will be available in various sizes, with some launching in the first half of 2024 and others in the second half, catering to a wide range of motorcycles and riders.
